Overview

Miniloop addresses the common challenges associated with generic CRM platforms like Salesforce or HubSpot, which often impose high per-seat fees for unused features and force businesses to adapt their processes to the software. The service offers a bespoke alternative by designing, building, and maintaining a custom CRM system.

The process begins with a detailed scoping phase where Miniloop studies the client's existing CRM usage, mapping fields, pipelines, automations, and required integrations. Following this, an engineering team constructs a custom database and interface, ensuring the CRM is perfectly aligned with the client's actual workflow, free from unnecessary modules. Miniloop also handles the complete data migration from legacy systems, guaranteeing a seamless transition without loss of historical records. Finally, the company hosts and maintains the custom CRM on either its managed servers or the client's own infrastructure, providing ongoing support and handling future changes. This approach aims to significantly reduce annual costs while delivering a perfectly fitted, scalable solution.
